Oversight & Accountability

Minnesotans deserve to know their local tax dollars are accounted for. As a Certified Management Accountant, Zack knows what it takes to hold people and organizations accountable. That includes working with our partners to identify additional guardrails when needed, because an unfair system leads to distrust of our institutions.

Strengthening Our Local Communities

Financial statements represent our actions and our priorities - and help us make better decisions to move forward. As Auditor, Zack will work closely with local governments across Minnesota - from School Boards to Soil Districts - to make sure they have the data, tools and training they need. That includes sharing finance resources to help tackle the critical shortage of finance professionals across Minnesota.

Communicating & Building Trust

This office is about translating not just the numbers, but why they are important. These are the dollars closest to you. The financial security of our local governments is key to everything from public safety and getting your street plowed to your neighbor receiving their supportive services. Zack is committed to providing the background behind the data, holding open houses and forums to ensure the transparency of the office.
